Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of water reducers, and in particular to an ultra-long-slump-retention polycarboxylate water reducer mother liquor and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] A water reducer is an admixture used in concrete that significantly reduces the amount of water used in the mix, thereby improving the workability and durability of the concrete. Using a water reducer allows the use of less water while maintaining the same fluidity, or increases the fluidity of the concrete without increasing the water-cement ratio. This helps improve the physical properties and durability of the concrete, while also conserving cement or increasing its strength.

[0003] The application number is 202411146655.X, and the patent name is a composite material for preparing powdered polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent, powdered polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent and preparation method. It discloses a composite material that can promote the solidification of water-reducing agent and improve the powdering property of water-reducing agent. The water-reducing agent prepared after being used as a raw material for water-reducing agent can also provide internal curing effect, which can effectively promote the full hydration of cement, inhibit the self-shrinkage of concrete, and thus reduce the cracking of concrete. When the humidity of the surrounding cement environment decreases, the water adsorbed by the highly absorbent composite material will be spontaneously released under the action of osmotic pressure, delaying the decrease in internal humidity, promoting further hydration of cement, and making up for the defects of traditional curing that is not in place and low curing efficiency. However, during use, the applicant found that when the composite material is directly compounded with the water-reducing agent, the dispersion of the composite material is poor and it is easy to agglomerate, which may lead to large differences in the degree of hydration of various parts of the cement and the occurrence of cracks, especially when the amount of composite material added is high.

The batch addition of the mixed liquid D can also reduce the influence of water absorption and steric hindrance of the composite material on the molecular weight distribution during the polymerization of the water reducer. By introducing an ester monomer and regulating the timing and amount of its addition, the release time of the water reducer can be effectively extended and the release amount per unit time can be controlled. The addition process of the chain transfer agent allows the water reducer to contain polymers of different molecular weights, while ensuring its collapse retention and durability effects and improving its dispersibility.
